I have a deep passion for helping people discover their power in the face of life’s adversities. Stress presents itself in a number of ways which impact the mind, body, and spirit. As a psychotherapist, I am dedicated to an integrative whole-person approach to wellness and healing. I am particularly interested in healing the emotional/spiritual wounds of internalized racism, sexism, homophobia and other forms of oppression. I work to empower others to overcome feeling stuck and controlled by distressing emotions, unhealthy behaviors, and painful past experiences.

You are the best expert about your life and your experiences; sometimes you just need external perspective to help you truly know what you know and figure out what you want to do with that knowledge. Financial issues, grief, loss, transitions, and relationships - these are the issues people bring to therapy. I work with the information that you bring into the room to help co-create solutions that truly work for you.

How are you dealing with the many losses in life? The loss of a loved person, your health, a companion animal, relationships, a job, sense of self. Most of us are taught to not pay attention to loss and feelings of sadness. Yet, ignoring or pushing away waves of loss can compound the difficult feelings, making them bigger. This often means that the losses begin to control us. My practice centers on how to work with your losses directly and indirectly and find in them a source of richness and direction. I also offer practical strategies for navigating periods of loss.

I believe one of the most valuable experiences someone can have in their life is to be truly heard. You may find me well-suited to helping you as I'm calm, empathic and nonjudgmental -- people have told me. I treat clients who struggle with anxiety, depression and relationship problems among other difficulties. In the past few years, my skills and knowledge have been deepened in particular by discovering that our connection to others is a survival need--and a key source of difficulties.
